Yes, you can replace those drives with any similar size SATA drives. But, I see no need as I have five Buffalos running 24/7 on my network, the oldest purchased in 2009, the newest in 2018. I have had no failures - zero. If you configure the Buffalo to RAID 1 you have no problem even if a drive dies as they are hot-swap and the system does automatic restore on insertion of a new drive. **Q: I am reviewing the 16tb 720 & will plug it into my wireless router via ethernet. i have both macs & pcs. is this compatable with mac catalina 10.15.7?** A: Yes, it should work with that OS> **Q: Will wireless support expire at any future point in time like Western Digital's mycloud did?** A: The LinkStation SoHo’s Personal Cloud support and WebAccess do not expire. The LinkStation Soho will work on wireless networks after connecting to the router via ethernet cable.. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by B***Z on April 26, 2021* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by J***M on October 17, 2025* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by F***S on December 18, 2025* ## Frequently Bought Together - BUFFALO LinkStation SoHo 220 8TB 2-Bay NAS Network Attached Storage with HDD Hard Drives Included NAS Storage That Works as Small Office and Home Cloud or Network Storage Device for Home Office - CyberGeek Nano J1 Linux Mini PC, Intel N5095A Quad-Core Up to 2.9Ghz, 16GB RAM 3200MHz, 512GB PCIe SSD Mini Computer, Micro PC Supports 4K Dual Display, WiFi, Type-C, RJ45, VESA, Ubuntu OS --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/160966389-linkstation-soho-220-2-bay-personal-cloud-office-nas-8tb](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/160966389-linkstation-soho-220-2-bay-personal-cloud-office-nas-8tb) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
